I was looking for ideas on Pinterest to make face scrubbies.. You know how Pinterest gives you new ideas for other things? Well I found this blog where she posts 50 things to make and sell. I thought that was a great way to sell things you make without having to have a website. She also has all types of items that you can use your Cricut for. So I haven't tried anything yet, but I am definitely going to follow her. I would recommend you to do the same, if you are looking to use your Cricut for things to make and sell. Here is the blog address:

https://tastefullyfrugal.org/2019/10/50-things-to-make-and-sell-with-cricut.html

I have a Cricut Maker and so that means I can also make things to sew. Now I didn't notice if she has ideas for the Maker, I have been trying to untangle some yarn, while I was scrolling.

Talking about Cricut I just found another blog you may like. It's making things with your Cricut in 15 minutes. I really like what she has. I am going to share this blog also:

https://www.happygoluckyblog.com/cricut-projects-you-can-make-in-15-minutes-or-less/

Well that's it for now. I am Pinterest just about everyday. I keep my laptop next to me, so when I am sitting on the couch and I want to make something, I just get on Pinterest and look and save and follow.

Have a good day or night when your reading this and checkout the blogs I posted. These ladies have some good ideas to share using your Cricut. I guess I need to look at these and start using my Cricut. My husband bought me some notions and vinyl for my Cricut for Christmas and I haven't even taken them out of the boxes yet.

I will post more when I come across some good ideas or videos or both.

I have opened another shop called Paradise of Creations. That is where I will put handmade items that I crochet, sew and different types of crafts. There isn't much in there at the moment, but I will be adding more items really soon. Right now I have Air Freshener Doll with the pop up freshener.

Now in my Vintage Sewing Shoppe on Etsy, I have added a few new categories.. They are clearance $2, clearance attachments $7 and a few clearance $1.

Now I have come across some fantastic doll clothes and accessories websites.

They are:

This one here has a free pattern instructions to make a bean bag. There are so many more things that she designed here on the link with this website.

https://www.americangirlideas.com/sewing-small-crafts/

This website has all types of crafts and sewing ideas for American Girl Dolls.

Also this week JoAnns is having a sale on Kwik Sew and Butterick patterns for $1.99. I was shocked to see that Kwik Sew was on sale. It's very rare that these patterns are at this price. So I got 10 and I found some cute doll patterns. I can't wait to make them.

I hope this New Hear 2020 will be the better year than last year. I hope this year will bring you joy and happiness.

Check out my YouTube channel. It's called Paradise Creations. 

It's been way to long

It's been a long time. My New Years resolution is to blog if not a few times a week, but to blog at least once a week. I am going to change my blog so you will be interested in the topics. I am going to add more shout outs to people that design their own sewing, plastic canvas, crochet, knitting patterns. I am going to have patterns for animals, arigami, doll clothes, doll making and so much more.

I am also going to upload videos from YouTube and Vimeo that will have the same content. I have been watching so much Youtube that I have so many ideas. I am also going to upload pictures of projects I make. Oh! I forgot that there is embroidery machine and hand, and cross stitching.

So be on the lookout for a lot of exiting things coming your way in the new year.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

I know it's been a while. I have been very busy getting things ready for my daughters wedding. I am so glad that is out of the way. Now I get t do things I enjoy.

New crochet blog discovered.

I watch a lot of YouTube on sewing, crafts and crochet. I came across this young woman that crochets some adorable things like baby items, jar covers, aphgans and so many more things. Her YouTube channel name is the crochet world. I found her blog and she has a lot of free patterns on there. These patterns are all her patterns. You should really check it out. Her blog address is:
http://thecrochetworld.blogspot.com/

I love all her tutorials. She does her tutorials on YouTube . I think she is from India, but she speaks English. Her instructions are easy to follow. She uses a lot of acrylic yarn. Here is one of her tutorials from YouTube:
